My friend John D'Amico has begun publishing a phenomenal piece of family history on Substack, the culmination of years of work. I strongly, strongly recommend y'all check it out: jmd88.substack.com/p/prologue-i...

Prologue: I Never Knew Dorothy

“Families of no importance, so much is lost, entire histories, there is no room for it all.

The continued “relevance” of Bill Maher is one of the most confusing things to me. I do not know a single person who watches his show or likes his style. Is he even a comedian? Why do I have to hear about this dude constantly as if he’s influential in the least?

one piece of advice i can share as a parent: certain phases can be really tough, but they do pass. around 18 months my son kept demanding that i condemn hasan piker. all day and night too, i was at the end of my rope. now he’s really into fire trucks. it’s always something new

If I may lib post for a moment: This Canada trade war should be immediate grounds for impeachment. It is abhorrent, arrogant, and stems from nothing but the demented narcissism of a president with a mafia-shakedown ethos and nothing else. I just pray the next admin can repair our relationship.

You want shockingly harsh film reviews? Come the fuck on.

Screenshot of an iconic paragraph from Roger Ebert's review of the Rob Reiner film "North" which reads: "I hated this movie. Hated hated hated hated hated this movie. Hated it. Hated every simpering stupid vacant audience-insulting moment of it. Hated the sensibility that thought anyone would like it. Hated the implied insult to the audience by its belief that anyone would be entertained by it."

At this point, any cable network that isn’t just playing 18 hour blocks of the same syndicated series every day is kind of a novelty.

Yet another reason to ditch Twitter: It makes this stuff look bigger than it ever really is, instead of just the latest meltdown of a terminally online and ultimately rather niche movement of crybabies.

THE ODYSSEY's instantly, predictably enormous success is Exhibit #32176 that the right wing's grievance-farming operation is not some great American cultural shift. Most people don't give a shit about their petty crusades.

Indeed. We are not forcing upon Graham the memory of him being a villain, a coward, and a malignant presence in the country; that was the legacy he chose again and again. He earned our contempt, as has everyone else on his path.

Lindsey Graham spent the last decade of his life in public service as a US Senator, trying hard to be remembered as an enemy of the Constitution who worked to destroy American democracy and exhibited occasional signs that he knew why that was bad but kept doing it anyway. I will honor his choice.

The murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo by ICE is devastating, but not surprising. This is the ICE playbook. We need to abolish ICE now and end qualified immunity so we can hold Trump’s thugs accountable.

A strange thing I've found over the years is Radiohead fans seem to get real annoyed when I say that Paranoid Android is my fav of their songs. Like... is it too much of a normie pick or something? They seem to take offense to me saying that.

The big thing about AI is all its actual best use cases are backend, unsexy, and most important to this whole industry - hard to market. Spreadsheets and operations management and all that. But instead the shit its worst at and most unnecessary is what gets shoved in our faces nonstop.

reading a book allows you to access the actual thoughts of dead authors. but what if AI allowed you to read things which dead authors did not say?!

This is 100% true and beautifully worded, it is in many ways the true heartland of the country where people of literally every stripe have crafted a unique and proud culture that defines what it means to be American. That said, you can still never make me feel happy for the Knicks.

New York City is the most perfectly "American" place in the nation, just one wave of newcomers after another, gradually building up the culture, one remarkable cultural collision after another. MAGA chuds hate NYC not because it's awful but because it disproves every lie they tell about immigration

under the weather and a right old mess of stress I took sanctuary in the church - for a free lunchtime organ recital. I recorded one bit because it was so quiet: the same volume as the stones surrounding us and the feet shuffling on the floor; more gossip than organ. I then filmed bits and pieces.

Just like the “abortion in the ninth month of pregnancy” bullshit as if anyone undergoing an abortion that late is just like “oops I meant to do this sooner but I just never got around to it” and not in a harrowing, life or death situation.

I was born in 91, only ever saw it a few years ago on a plane and my god, so much screaming. Kerri Green has a line “it’s like babysitting but I’m not getting paid” and that about sums up my feelings on that one.

I think people have an unrealistic, tv-based expectation of how a journalist should act in a good interview, just like they have an unrealistic idea of what a good cross-examination looks like. Your subject in either situation is never going to Perry Mason “you’re right I confess.”

This month I got to act in a super-indie film in a way I’ve never had the opportunity to do before and it was thrilling and humbling. The film just wrapped and now money is needed for post-production! There’s so much crazy shit going on right now but if you can, throw in a buck? gofund.me/0eb5c84a2
